Excellent Independent Movie
matnay | Atlanta, GA | 12/24/2009
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I watch a lot of independent films. Typically you can tell that they are independent either by the low-grade filming, all outdoor shots, or worthless actors who can't make it in community theatre. It's no easy task, but if those things work for you, you still usually have to be forgiving with issues with story or continuity, but these things are not an issue with "Fight Night".



The start of the film is a bit messy... the cinematography doesn't settle down for a while and there's too much "effect" for effect sake. But soon the lead actors present a story well enough that you soon move pass the effects and start paying attention to the story. It's a shame that neither star has other credits to their name that I can find... they should definitely be holding our attention in more movies."
Worth the Purchase!

"I saw this fight flick on Showtime and had to add it to my library.

Chad Ortis "Mike Dublin" should become an A-Lister - he's a very good actor. He times throw-aways well and was a convincing sleazoid manager.

Rebecca Neunswander is captivating in her role as the fighter and she's also a very good actress. Ortis and Neunswander should do more films together - there was some great chemistry.

Despite all it's violence and blood gore, there's something about this movie that wins you over. Perhaps it's the great dialog between the characters? Kudos to writer Ian Schorr for excellent screenwriting.

(Disclaimer: I do not know any of these people. I was simply impressed that they created a fight flick that was actually interesting to watch, was well-written and acted -- and it stayed clear of the all-too typical fight movie cliches.)

Go "Speedy"! ;)"
GREAT Indie Movie!

"WOW! I really didn't know what to expect from this movie but was blown away at by how good it was. It is very entertaining and the actors/actresses were excellent. It had alot of violence (boxing of course) but also had some good action, drama and touching moments. It kept my attention the whole time and I was cheering for Kathryn Parker, the female fighter. I hope the writer and director makes alot more movies! Oh and the reviewer that gave it one star and said he'd give it zero....well you know there's always one in a bunch. Oh well."
